What? trump ahead in a poll? Must be about time from trump to come up with another stoopid thing to say or do, then. The good thing about the polls being close... none of the folks on the other side are going to be complacent enough to not vote. But, I have heard that trump followers are so sure the election is rigged that they are either 1. not voting at all, or 2. voting straight democrat except for trump. Way to go!

Yay, yay, yay, hypocrites.

I thought that polls were rigged so Trump could not win or close the gap -- that's downright false apparently; why are you excited about bogus polls? Oh, I know, Trump is winning!!

Have some integrity.

I congratulate Mr. Trump for this poll. See, I am man enough to say that. Maybe that's because Clinton is now winning over Trump according to IBD/TIPP ("the most accurate pollster in the last 3 elections!!!!!! -- Trump fan until this poll) and Rasmussen.

The FAU poll backs up the prediction by Ryan Tyson, vice president for political operations for the Associated Industries of Florida, wrote to his conservative members this past weekend that they should be prepared for a Clinton victory in the range of 275,000 to 460,000 votes. In Florida terms, that is a landslide.

I imagine that most reasonable people recognize that Florida, as usual, will be a very close race. It can be said that for this particular state, the election results are the only results that matter. In the next few days we will probably see polls swinging back and forth.


I know that 538 still rates Clintons' chances of winning the state at 70 percent, which I choose not to believe, in this instance. Other states are fun to speculate about, but to make any firm prediction for Florida is foolish.

I will be glad when this election is over_ It's unbelievable that people want to support Trump for this office, when he has demonstrated that he is not the character type nor the demeanor type for this office.

He spent time and got his issues on the table. He has a good point about jobs, and industry, but when it comes to other matters of the nation, he does not have the ability to deal with such, because he does not have the knowledge and he has shown that he does not take instruction very well. He does not listen to advisory well, and he has show that he is not a team player, as he has launched so much assault upon the Republican system, and they not only have been exposed but they are not silenced.

Trump can't deliver on Job, nor Creating Industry, he could not keep a Casino running after dumping in a Billion Dollars, he has filed bankruptcy 6 times, and he has swindled the tax system to the tune of more than 900 million, and strapped cities with losses so he could get tax concessions. He can't negotiate International Trade Deal, this stuff is deeply tied to the global currency valuation system, as just one element of what is involved in Trade Deal. This is not some game with a local city system trying to build a couple of blocks of buildings.

People are wrapped up in fantasy-land drama, and with a vain hopes, rather than pursuing "informed awareness and information to support the understanding of details".. This is something the Republican system's members have been well trained over decades to avoid doing. This is how the Republican lead them in drama fits to accept anything and never have understanding of what they have committed to. That's how we got wrapped in Wars and resulted to have a Crashed economy and a very challenged nations.

Trump would have been best to not run for office, and simply set up a foundation of American Business Federation of Executives, to discuss how they go about their business and how they support domestic systems as a foundation for their global engagements. This would have been his best scenario. Therefore, he could have talked to them about the value point of Nationalist Pride in Industry.

But he could never do such as a President, because that would be Protectionism, which will damage the global economy from a Federal Official Position.

Stop and think people !!!!!!! get off the madness of being lost and pulled by emotional drama.

Don't you see the mess that Drama caused the British, and the next day they awakened with buyers remore and realized they were led by game playing drama of chasing fantasy illusions, now they face an unknown that can be and become crippling in the long term.

Wake up!!!!! THINK !!!!! Don't be a fool for drama ones entire life....

No, no, it's okay for "libs to use polls" because they always stand by them regardless of the result. Yes, they may point out that a particular polling firm has a historical Republican bias or has a terrible track record (both of which can easily be verified), but they don't disavow the entire polling process. That's the (fundamental) difference. That's the honorable and honest thing to do.

Why isn't this in the polls thread? Not worthy of an individual thread, or I'd wear my fingers out starting new threads for every poll that Hillary leads in.
